Aloha Parents,

Swimming with Ms. Whitney and Mr. Kimura was a hit on Monday when the keiki enjoyed their first swim lesson together. To make things easier for the swim classes in the future, boys can come dressed in swim shorts and their rash guards or t-shirts before they arrive at school. Please pack a t-shirt and shorts in their swim bag to change into after swim class. Girls may wear their swimsuits under their school attire. Long hair must be pulled back. Sunblock may be applied before school.

Our Learning Showcase will be an exciting event on Friday, March 21st.  The Kindergarten classes will present  Healthy Teeth and A Healthy Me! This is all about Dental Health and Food & Nutrition. Visit us in K-1 as your child shares their knowledge and answers your questions about these two important topics.

Our showcase will be at: 9:30-9:50 and 10:30-10:50.  Classroom doors will open a little earlier (9:15) for your convenience.  Mrs. Ellis will be showcasing Music Class with the K-1 students in the Music Room  from 10:00-10:20, so you may want to visit them, too.

No Resources classes are planned. But, please note that regular instructional time will be throughout the rest of the day. Early dismissal for all HMS students will be at 11:30.  There will no Afterschool or FG classes.
